If the SCR system needs component replacement — dosing injector, pump, tank or catalyst — that is separate, and you will be told before any work starts. If this is a job we cannot fix at the roadside, we will tell you that on the phone rather than after we arrive.

Oil in the AdBlue tank in Aviemore — what is different locally
In and around Aviemore the job is usually done at the filling station where the mistake happened, in a bay away from the pumps, with the fluid drained into sealed containers and taken away.
Distance to a marque dealer from Aviemore is the single biggest variable in what this ends up costing, and it is worth settling before anything is towed. Vans and pickups around Aviemore carry larger AdBlue tanks, are refuelled by whoever is on shift, and lose a working day rather than an evening when they are off the road.
The cost split is simple and it is stated up front: the call-out, the drain and flush, and separately anything the SCR system itself needs. Because Highlands and Islands sees sustained cold, the first thing to establish on a level warning in January is whether the fluid has simply not thawed yet.
The geography affects arrival time and disposal, not the outcome; that is decided by the contamination direction and whether the engine was run. Frequently needs SCR component work rather than a drain. Quoted before a technician travels. Coverage runs across Highlands and Islands on the same basis, with volume and disposal priced in before anyone sets off.
